Ric-8A/Galpha13 signaling pathway is required to proper cranial neural crest migration in Xenopus.

Abstract

Cell migration requires several signals to control cell movements, such as heterotrimeric G protein pathway. Ric-8A, a GEF for Gα subunits plays an important role in neural crest (NC) migration in Xenopus. However the Gα subunit activated by Ric-8A remain
